- Abstract
Objective: Parental severe mental illness (SMI) increases the lifetime risk of mental and pediatric disorders in the offspring but little is known about specific disorders during early childhood. The primary aim was to investigate the incidence of mental and pediatric disorders among children 0–6 years old exposed to parental SMI, and secondarily to investigate the distribution of disorders on specific child age. Methods: A nationwide, register-based cohort study of 1,477,185 children born in Denmark between 1994.01.01 and 2016.12.31. Incidence rate ratios were calculated using Poisson regression analysis for any and specific mental and pediatric disorders. Results: IRR for any psychiatric disorder was elevated by a factor 2–5 among SMI offspring. Maternal schizophrenia resulted in the highest IRR = 5.23 (4.80–5.69) of any child psychiatric disorder. The risk of anxiety/OCD and attachment disorder among offspring exposed to parental, and in particular maternal, SMI was markedly raised with IRRs for anxiety/OCD between 7.59 and 17.02 and attachment disorders between 6.26 and 15.40. IRRs of mental disorders were highest at age 0–1 year and declined with age. IRR for any pediatric disorder was also elevated with IRRs between 1.01 and 1.28. Disorders of the digestive system and ill-defined symptoms were associated with the highest IRRs. Maternal (vs. paternal) SMI was associated with higher IRRs. IRRs declined slightly with child age. Conclusion: Children exposed to parental SMI are at increased risk of mental and pediatric disorders during early childhood, particularly anxiety/OCD and attachment disorders. If associations are estimates of a modifiable causal relationship, our results indicate a need for early intervention to promote mental and pediatric health among SMI offspring.

- Abstract
BACKGROUND: The offspring of parents with severe mental illness (SMI) are at higher risk of mortality and of developing certain somatic diseases. However, across the full spectrum of somatic illness, there remains a gap in knowledge regarding morbidity.METHODS: We conducted a register-based nationwide cohort study of all 2 000 694 individuals born in Denmark between 1982 and 2012. Maximum age of offspring at follow-up was 30 years. Information on parents' psychiatric diagnoses of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and unipolar depression was retrieved from the Psychiatric Central Register. We estimated incidence rate ratio (IRR), cumulative incidence percentage and mortality rate ratio of first hospital contact for a broad spectrum of somatic illnesses according to the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems. Analyses were adjusted for important confounders.RESULTS: Offspring of individuals with SMI had higher risk of somatic hospital contacts IRR: 1.17 (95% CI: 1.16-1.18) with maternal depression being associated with the highest IRR (1.22, 95% CI: 1.20-1.24). Offspring of parents with SMI had higher risk within most broad diagnostic categories with highest IRRs for unclassified somatic diagnoses, infections and endocrine diseases ranging from 1.27 (95% CI: 1.25-1.28) to 1.26 (95% CI: 1.23-1.29) (all P < .0001). Morbidity was particularly increased in children aged 0-7 years. The mortality rate ratio associated with parental SMI was 1.31 (95% CI: 1.21-1.41) with excess mortality mainly due to unnatural causes.CONCLUSION: Our findings indicate that offspring of parents with SMI experienced increased mortality and somatic morbidity warranting heightened vigilance and support for this population.

Objective: The study explores predictors of antenatal caregiving representations among mothers with a history of severe mental illness (SMI).Background: Attachment research has demonstrated that multifactorial assessment of antenatal caregiving representations predicts later maternal behaviour and child attachment. However, the field lacks research among clinical groups. Knowledge of factors influencing caregiving representations during pregnancy can contribute to our understanding of caregiving risk among SMI-mothers and inform intervention decisions.Method: The current study is a cross-sectional subsample of the WARM study. Participants were 65 Danish or Scottish pregnant women with a history of either schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, moderate–severe depression, or non-clinical controls. Caregiving representations, adverse childhood experiences, social support and current symptom severity were assessed during pregnancy.Results: Symptom severity was associated with more non-optimal caregiving representations expecting less parental enjoyment, more difficulties separating from the child, and more feelings of caregiving helplessness. Lack of social support and adverse childhood experiences served as independent predictors of caregiving representations. Parental mental illness during own childhood predicted role reversed expectations.Conclusion: Antenatal caregiving representations can be assessed with a time-efficient self-report measure that assesses caregiving as a multidimensional construct. Prenatal treatment planning should target individual difficulties in undertaking transformation of the caregiving system.

- Abstract
Denne artikel beskæftiger sig med, hvordan risiko og modstandsdygtighed overføres fra forældre til barn, når mor lider af en alvorlig psykisk lidelse. Vi vil argumentere for, at det er helt centralt at undersøge forældre-barn relationen og det tidlige samspil, hvis man vil forstå spædbarnets psykosociale udvikling. Artiklen handler om, hvordan mor-barn samspillet er påvirket, når mor har alvorlige psykiske vanskeligheder, og pointerer, at mors diagnose ikke alene kan forklare kvaliteten af hendes samspil med barnet. Forældrerollen udvikles på baggrund af et samspil mellem forældrenes egne tilknytningserfaringer, de aktuelle sociale ressourcer og samspillet, som det formes med netop dette barn og dets særlige karakteristika. Derfor tror vi, at mere forskning i forældre-barn samspillet kan medvirke til at udvikle mere målrettede forebyggende interventioner, der kan støtte gravide kvinder med psykiske vanskeligheder.

- Abstract
The caregiving system was originally described by Bowlby and has been conceptually developed by George and Solomon (1989; 1996; 2008). It is “the other half” of the social bond between parent and child and is described as a behavioural system in its own right that is reciprocally linked to the child´s attachment system. The Prenatal Caregiving Experiences Questionnaire (PCEQ) (Brennan, George, & Solomon, 2013) is the first questionnaire that directly assesses prenatal caregiving representation. This poster presentation brings together different researchers who use the instrument in ongoing longitudinal research projects. The poster includes a description of the development of the PCEQ questionnaire, the theoretical background, as well as preliminary data on future mothers and fathers from the WARM study., The caregiving system was originally described by Bowlby and has been conceptually developed by George and Solomon (1989; 1996; 2008).
